Our family of five spent 10 nights at Alpina hotel in Lech and next time we will stay longer! It was the perfect choice for us - we are so glad we booked it. We stayed in the two bedroom apartment which gave us all space (we have three teenagers) and a kitchen so we didn’t always have to eat out, but we had the luxuries of being in a beautiful boutique hotel. A delicious and varied breakfast each morning, afternoon tea served every afternoon by the fire. The staff were so helpful and friendly. They asked us if there were any other foods we would like served for breakfast and afternoon tea etc. The service was so personalised and warm - it’s just a very special place. We also loved the sauna and steam room, which we used each afternoon after returning from skiing or a lovely walk around town or along a hiking trail. We had the opportunity to chat with other guests from around the world - many of whom have been returning to this hotel for decades (one guest told me she used to sit at the same breakfast table as us with her children 30 years earlier!). Bruno and Gabrielle were always available to help with any enquiries, including making restaurant reservations and ensuring we were given a lovely table at the best restaurant in town. We have skiied in a number of places - including in Switzerland - and this place is our favorite. The location is fantastic - very short and easy walk to the ski lifts, all restaurants and the supermarket. You can’t do...
Read moreAbsolute no-brainer to choose the Alpina if you’re visiting Lech! A traditional former-house renovated in chic, modern style, it feels both designer and cozy. The location is perfect, the ski room and spa are ideal, and the breakfast is wonderful. All that pales in comparison to the service though (which feels like a weird word to use regarding people who actually treat you like family). Despite arriving at nearly midnight, Bruno, the owner, met us at the door, offered to help take our luggage in from the car, and showed us around his beautiful property. When my boyfriend was injured skiing, he offered to upgrade us to a larger room for him to recover in at no charge (which was unnecessary as even the regular rooms are bright and spacious) and invited me to ski with him and his family (which was a real treat as they’re all talented skiers who know the mountains like the back of their hands!). He gave the best recommendations (he was born and raised in Lech) and checked in on us daily to make sure we were enjoying our stay. I’ve never been quite so sad to leave a hotel before, and I’m already looking forward...
